This story is beautiful!, incredible, and pulled some tears out of me, touched my soul!, Excellent!
Like Buena Vista Social Club says, "Life without music is like a journey trough a dessert". This is what this movie tells you all the time, with one of the most beautiful stories that i have ever seen!, the music takes you trough all the movie, touch your soul and send you trough a travel trough heaven!!, and specially, without being a Musical (genre that i personally don't like too much).
The story, or legend of 1900, is a story of passion, feeling the soul of music, of friendship, of skills and of the hearth. Tim Roth here plays 1900, a piano player that has lived always on a cruise ship (The Virginia); he was found in the year 1900 by a charismatic worker of the ship, Danny (Bill Nunn); 1900 since his early years showed great natural skills on the piano; this movie is a musical story of his life, narrated by his best friend Max Tooney (Pruitt Taylor Vince), a trumpet player that spend with him various year in the orchestra of the ship. This movie shows beautiful scenes like the duel between 1900 and Jelly Roll Morton with Max eating paper and the playing of music with the piano rolling trough the main room in the middle of a storm.
Giuseppe Tornatore masterpiece!, with great cinematography, incredible production design, great costume design, and the best of all... Beautiful Music!. Excellent! 10/10
